Well, there is one thing that's stupider. There's no cruise control. It's AP or nothing. If I just want the car to do nothing but hold the current speed, like my 1986 Chevrolet Camaro did, it doesn't have that feature. If the cameras don't work for some reason such as a heavy rainstorm, there's no "dumb mode" cruise control as a backup. I find that annoying.
That still does TACC. He wants cruise control without TACC. That is not possible in any modern Tesla, AFAIK. I believe the most recent to offer it was the Model 3 SR, which is no longer available. The SR+ and the Y SR both included AP with mandatory TACC.
Its weird, as other cars at least offer an option to disable TACC.
